Around 1913
"This early photo has a
great view of the school, as well as the class. It was taken by D &
W Prophet, Dundee & Edinburgh, probably around 1913.
This photo was brought in
by Morag Sinclair. Her mother is in the photo, the 7th girl from the
left in 3rd row from the back, anxious smile and dark clothes."
